--- Quote from: Gray_Area on December 12, 2012, 02:36:20 pm ---I never had problems with the stock settings in MAME32 .106 . Note attached. [even with onboard video, of which my first PC was an Intel 845G] All games run at the desktop resolution, in horizontal orientation. (I have always used MAME32, at least to set up stuff - though without any effects, etc, no set-up is needed.) --- End quote --- So games like Galaga work ok on your setup? Do you have Mala point to your Mame32 install and it works fine? I'll check that out if so, not adding in a video card would be sweet. |

No Luck. I dug up an old thread from back in the day: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=28324.0 All I can suggest is you are using one of the newer Intel onboard graphics. The one I'm using is junk. |

Using a front end? I know Mala will orientate the game if you choose it to in options. |

@lew: 845 and 865 were the same generation - respectively, Dell 4500 (lower P4) and 4600 (upper P4). Should work the same. Do H and V games run horizontal from MAME itself? If so, then it might be a Mala setting like DaOld Man mentioned: --- Quote from: DaOld Man on December 12, 2012, 03:15:25 pm ---Using a front end?

Sorry guys - I meant to reply yesterday and wrote up a response, but I guess I didn't post it. Good thought on using mame command line. I did, and it was still sideways. So I did the following: - redownloaded mame .106 and tested it (through MALA and CLI) still sideways - downloaded mame .147(latest release) and tested it. IT WORKED! Why would that work? I downloaded a release in the middle, like .125 or something, and it worked also. So, not sure what happened in which version of Mame but .147 worked great. Of course, now I need a new set of Mame roms and instead of trying to figure out the CLRMAMEPRO mess, I'm getting a complete updated set. I'm also wondering why a new video card also fixed the issue, but at this point I don't care so much as long as everything is working with onboard video I'm good. Thanks Gray_Area, DaOldMan, and Bad Mouth for making me keep at it. It would've been easy just to use a different video card and call it a day. |
